    YouTube Video on Automatic Form Resizing

    As some of you may know, I have been a keen advocate of using Automatic Form Resizing (AFR) for many years.
    Related to this, I ran a session explaining how to use AFR to the US based Lunchtime Access User Group led by Maria Barnes on 28 Sept.


    The video was expertly edited by Crystal Long (thank you!) & uploaded to YouTube on Monday. Its certainly getting lots of views - currently 450 in just 5 days!
    It can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mgIvCosYtU

    For anyone interested in the topic of Automatic Form Resizing (AFR), I've done further development work since I gave this presentation at the end of Sept.



    New features include:

    • use of AFR with Access navigation forms
    • just today I finally managed to get both AFR and zoom to work with datasheet forms


    Both of these features will be included when I do another presentation on AFR to the UK Access User Group seminar provisionally scheduled for early Jan as either a live or online event. It was due to take place yesterday (4 Nov) but unfortunately had to be cancelled for COVID-related reasons.

    UPDATE:
    If anyone would like a copy of the latest version (3.4) of the AFR example app and/or the PowerPoint presentation used in the video, please click ShowMore in the description below the video to find download links for each of these items. If you find the video useful, I would be great if you could 'like' the video and a comment as feedback. Many thanks

    In another shameless bit of promotion, I'm also running a session on Controlling the Application Interface to the Eastern Time Access User Group organised by Dale Fye. The session will be on Fri 17 Dec from 09:00-10:00 US Eastern Time (ET) which is 14:00-15:00 GMT.

    I hope some of you can make one or both of those sessions

    EDIT:
    For more info on future online sessions of the various Access User Groups, visit https://accessusergroups.org/.
    All sessions are completely free for anyone to attend and are uploaded to You Tube a few weeks after the event

    Colin, if you're not an Access MVP yet, I have to ask those responsible "Why the h-e-double hockey sticks not??"
